    Area of Science:

    • Oral pathology
    • Pediatric oncology
    • Developmental biology

    Background:

    • Granular-cell myoblastoma (GCM) is a rare soft tissue tumour of disputed origin, often occurring in adults.
    • Congenital GCM is exceptionally rare, with limited documented cases in newborns.

    Observation:

    • A newborn presented with multiple tumourous nodes on the alveolar processes of the maxilla and mandible.
    • Tumour sizes ranged from 0.3 cm to 2 cm, with specific measurements of 15 x 10 x 8 mm for one node.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of granular-cell myoblastoma.
    • The presence of multiple lesions in a newborn suggests a potential developmental or congenital etiology.

    Implications:

  • This case underscores the necessity of considering rare diagnoses like congenital GCM in newborns with oral masses.
  • Early diagnosis and management are crucial for potential functional and aesthetic outcomes in affected infants.
  • Further research into the pathogenesis of congenital GCM may elucidate its origins and inform therapeutic strategies.
